I had the exact same childhood experience. Fond memories of sitting on the front porch in summer reading every article. I remember when Time darkened the OJ Simpson cover to make him appear more sinister! Newsweek was on the right side of that one, and soon they will be gone. It was foundational learning, along with Sid Meier's Civilization and Winston Groom's Forest Gump and the sequel Gump & Company. The Gump books are funny enough to keep the attention of a fourth grader, and teach modern American history along the way. We really, really, really have to figure a way to distribute the bounty of our bigger than ever economy a bit better, so professional journalism can continue.
